Swiftflo-D Tablet MR

Swiftflo-D Tablet MR is a prescription tablet that combines tamsulosin and dutasteride in each tablet, and it belongs to the alpha blocker/5-alpha reductase inhibitor treatment group used for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), also called an enlarged prostate. It helps relieve urinary symptoms such as weak stream, frequent urination, and difficulty starting to urinate. Swiftflo-D Tablet MR is intended for men with BPH and is not used to treat prostate cancer. Because it is a tablet formulation from Oxirich Healthcare Pvt. Ltd., it is taken by mouth with water as directed by a doctor.

How it works: Tamsulosin relaxes the muscle around the prostate and bladder neck, which can make urine flow more easily through the tablet’s daily dose. Dutasteride lowers the hormone that helps the prostate grow, which may gradually shrink the prostate over time and reduce blockage.

Swiftflo-D Tablet MR is the exact labeled strength in tablet form, so it is meant for patients whose doctor has decided they need this combination rather than a lower-dose step-up. Since tamsulosin can work relatively quickly on urine flow while dutasteride works more slowly on prostate size, a doctor may choose this tablet when symptom control and longer-term prostate management are both needed. There are no other strengths or sibling forms listed for this brand in your catalog, so this product should be viewed as the available prescribed option for this combination.

• Benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate)
• Trouble starting urination
• Weak or interrupted urine stream
• Frequent urination, especially at night
• Urinary hesitancy and incomplete emptying

• Swallow the tablet whole with water; do not crush, chew, or split it unless your doctor specifically tells you to.
• Take Swiftflo-D Tablet MR exactly as prescribed, usually once daily, and try to take it at the same time each day.
• You may take it with or without food, but taking it after the same meal each day can help you remember.
• Stand up slowly after taking it, especially when you first start, because tamsulosin can cause dizziness or lightheadedness.
• If you miss a dose, take it when you remember unless it is close to your next dose; do not double up.
• Do not donate blood while taking dutasteride and for 6 months after stopping it.

Swiftflo-D Tablet MR provides tamsulosin plus dutasteride in the labeled amount per tablet, so the full dose is built into each single tablet. It is usually taken once daily, and the doctor decides whether this strength is appropriate; do not take more than one tablet in 24 hours unless your prescriber tells you to. Because this is a prescription combination product, the exact duration and schedule should be individualized based on your symptoms and response.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

• Alcohol may worsen dizziness or low blood pressure.
• Tell your doctor if you have liver disease, low blood pressure, or a history of fainting.
• This medicine can affect PSA blood test results, so your doctor should know you are taking dutasteride.
• Do not handle crushed or broken tablets if you are pregnant or may become pregnant, because dutasteride can be absorbed through the skin.
• If you are scheduled for eye surgery, tell the surgeon you take tamsulosin, since it may affect the iris during cataract or glaucoma procedures.

• Other alpha blockers, such as doxazosin or terazosin, can increase dizziness and low blood pressure.
• PDE-5 inhibitors for erectile dysfunction, such as sildenafil or tadalafil, may add to blood pressure lowering.
• Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors can raise dutasteride or tamsulosin exposure.
